Is that the right thing to do? I have LANG=C.UTF-8. If I pass a
Windows-style filename on the command line, it's passed as UTF-8. How do
I then convert that to Unix-style, UTF-8?

Example program attached. Run with for example "testpath åäö.txt" and
"testpath 'C:\WINDOWS\åäö.txt'"

I tried with the snapshot DLL (not any other files) from 20111207 and
got garbage (double-encoded UTF-8).
